I answered before that a freeview system can save
OTA TV. But I don't want to imply that broadcaster
cleverness can't also help save it, by offering
other than real-time TV streams in their allocated
spectrum. Freeview is just an example of how OTA
*has been* saved.

There is no reason to assume that a centrally
planned utility would be more clever at finding
new applications for the TV spectrum than
individual broadcasters with their 6 MHz slices.
